:( I trained for 5 months to win this division then I get blown out in the pre-trials by this guy :(

LOL. No, son. You better leave it to me. I'm a family lawyer with experience in dashing families to pieces... errrr mending shattered families.

She's at least 18, right? ;)
Actually, she's 14.

OH GEEZE....dude, no, just no....move along. You're not going to listen to this advice, I didn't when I was your age and doing the same stuff...but just move on
I'll be 17 by the end of the month.

She's really cute. (Ouch, just read that she's 14!!! Yikes!) :shocked: Oh well, she's still cute (I say that only in a fatherly sort of way). The rest of my post stands. :laugh:

You have big ears and sound desperate.

Chicks hate desperate guys. They can smell desperation on a guy like rotting chicken left out in the sun. You need to move on. Stop calling her and find some chicks in your zip code to date.

She lives in my town, and I hang out with her in real life usually 3 times a week.

You sure she's not fourteen. Maybe she's one of those twenty year old women that have disappeared and end up back in a highschool somewhere pretending to be a teenager?

Okay, you seem like a nice guy. I'm going to give you a word of advice. Just be true to your feelings and see how it all plays out. If you tell her how you feel and she rejects you at least you can move on. It will suck and it will hurt but it's part of growing up.

Sorry about the big ears comment. :eek:

Good luck!

Yeah... I had her over last night.

Had a discussion... didn't go too well for me.

I'm not calling her anymore. Not this week anyway. We'll see what happens.

She definitely doesn't feel the same way I do anymore.

We're at different stages of life. What can I expect. Just feel like a loser being rejected, especially by a girl 2 years younger.

Where you are. She has no feelings for you other then someone to tell her sad story too, and as backup. Are you guys in college or HS?

Either way don't call her for a few days. Find a date with somebody. When she does call (could take up to four-five days). Tell her about the date and the new girl you met.

You'll know shortly where you lie.

We dated for a while, and now we're best friends, but still have feelings for each other. (That's part of the problem... but not the one I want to ask about.)

We go to different schools, and talk on the phone almost every night in excess of an hour, sometimes two hours. We get along just great, and love talking to each other.

The problem though... I'm always the one that calls. Unless I specifically ask her to call me on a certain day, I'm always the one that phones her. I don't really have a problem with this, but subconsciously I think I'm feeling rejected. More importantly, 99% of the time, she is the first one to go. It's not that she doesn't like talking to me, but she has stuff to do and she's not allowed to talk too long on the phone, due to the fact that we're both in high school and her parents don't want her hogging the phone.

Anyway, the thing is: I always get upset when she says she has to go, and when she hangs up. I usually stall her, and when she goes I often wait to hear the dial tone and just listen. Recently, I actually threw my cordless phone across the room in anger/sadness.

Is there something wrong with me?
Am I obsessed?
Pic of me and her
you've got a bad case of puppy love.

Speaking as one who is in HS, you're are friends, nothing else. And yes, you are obsessed. I was once that way. But then the girl that I liked starting dating this other guy, and now he's insanely whipped...it's not even funny anymore. Anyways, you have an unhealthy relationship. Be contintent being friends. Take it from me, I've had PLENTY of experience with JUST being friends...

It will seem insignificant by the time you are 20. Don't sweat it. EVERYBODY gets rejected at some point in their life. It's part of life's experiences.

what an annoying reply. at least tell us what you said and how she responded. dont come in here posting this crap and leaving it so generic we barely know what happened. you cant start a YAGT and behave like that.

lol..

We walked down the cul-de-sac of my street, where it's dark, with my black lab dog with us. She chuckled and told me that her friend Elliot once showed her some constellations. So I came over and looked at the stars with her. She told me she didn't know any, so I showed her Orion, and put my arm around her. But I just sorta squeezed, then let go and kept walking.

Then, I told her that the previous night had been pretty painful for me, since we were sorta flirting a lot, and she looked so good, etc. I still really liked her.

She was sorta like, "Oh..." and so I asked her if she felt the same way at all.

She said not really.

Anyway, that's the beginning of me being a loser.

We watched The Island with my family after that. Stupid me, still liking her, etc. I touched her leg a little bit.

Later on I apologized and she said it was okay. Then she asked me why I did it. I didn't really know why, other than the fact that I liked her.

She then told me that she felt like I was just seeking the physical side of things.

I had no response.

That good enough, MrDudeMan?

I hate to say I told you so, but I did and your response was that she liked you. Actions are much louder than words and her actions were very clear to everyone but you. She'll probably be happy that you're not calling and bothering her all the time.

We're still good friends. She has never admitted that she dislikes me calling, if it's true.

d00d, you're obsessed.

Seriously, if just being friends isn't enough for you, then you need to let her go.
